Uppermoon one's son | KNY | English version

Chapter 16

I opened my eyes to a ravaged place. The buildings were all collapsed and ablaze. I was under a beam that I managed to move.

I emerged from the rubble, saber in hand, I scanned the surroundings. I saw Nezuko looking for the survivors. I went towards her.

Tanjiro: Nezuko!

Nezuko: *turns around* Tanjiro! I'm glad you don't have anything. But... Where are the others?

Tanjiro: hmm... I'll say over there. *points in the rubble* Let's go.

Nezuko and I headed to where I pointed. I saw Zen'itsu, his legs under the debris. We were going to help him when an obi was going to chop off my arms and also chop off Nezuko's head. I blocked it with my saber which had returned to its normal size.

Daki: Shit! He blocked me!

Gyutaro: Anyway, we only have the slayers to kill and recover Kokushibou's son.

Daki: Yeah, that's right.

Tanjiro: You know we're still here? 'Cause if you're arguing, it's not fighting.

Daki: Alright! So eat this!

Daki sent all his sharp obis, I parried them with my sword. Then I rushed towards her and used my breath.

Tanjiro: Breath of the Moon! Fifth Movement: Cursed Vortex of the Spectral Moon.

I cut off Daki's head. Gyutaro tried to hit me with his sickles but was parried by Uzui who was still alive.

Tanjiro: Uzui!

Gyutato: You're supposed to be dead! How can you still be alive?

Uzui: I have to tense my muscles to stop my heart!

Inosuke: Me too, I'm here!

Daki: We don't care about losers like you.

Inosuke: WHAT?!

Inosuke rushed at Daki, I caught him and put him near Zen'itsu.

Tanjiro: Take care of getting Zen'itsu out of there instead.

Inosuke: Tsk...

I let Inosuke pull Zen'itsu out of the rubble. I returned to fight against the 6th upper moon. Nezuko confronted Daki.

Uzui: You are strong! It's flamboyant, except for your appearance!

Gyutaro: Rrrr! Stop insulting me! You are muscular and sexy! It makes me want to kill you!

Uzui: I'm muscular, sexy and I have three wives! I am flamboyant!
